Download or read book In Vitro Drug Metabolism Studies Using Human Liver Microsomes written by Rajesh Sonti and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metabolism of most pharmaceutical drugs occurs in the liver. In drug metabolism, enzymes convert drugs to highly water-soluble metabolites to facilitate excretion from the body. Thus, in vitro models for studying drug metabolism usually target hepatocytes or subcellular liver fractions like microsomes, cytosols, or S9 fractions with high concentrations of specific enzymes. The most popular subcellular fraction used during drug discovery tends to be the microsomes, as these are easy to prepare and store, are amenable to high throughput screening, and are a relatively low-cost option. Understanding the metabolic stability and kinetics of glucuronidation of an investigational drug is crucial for predicting the pharmacokinetic parameters that support dosing and dose frequency. This chapter provides detailed information about metabolite profiling, metabolic stability, glucuronidation kinetics, reactive metabolites identification, CYP enzyme inhibition, and general protocols using human liver microsomes.

Download or read book Handbook of Essential Pharmacokinetics Pharmacodynamics and Drug Metabolism for Industrial Scientists written by Younggil Kwon and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the pharmaceutical industry, the incorporation of the disciplines of pharma- kinetics, pharmacodynamics, and drug metabolism (PK/PD/DM) into various drug development processes has been recognized to be extremely important for approp- ate compound selection and optimization. During discovery phases, the identifi- tion of the critical PK/PD/DM issues of new compounds plays an essential role in understanding their pharmacological profiles and structure-activity relationships. Owing to recent progress in analytical chemistry, a large number of compounds can be screened for their PK/PD/DM properties within a relatively short period of time. During development phases as well, the toxicology and clinical study designs and trials of a compound should be based on a thorough understanding of its PK/PD/DM properties. During my time as an industrial scientist, I realized that a reference work designed for practical industrial applications of PK/PD/DM could be a very valuable tool for researchers not only in the pharmacokinetics and drug metabolism departments, but also for other discovery and development groups in pharmaceutical companies. This book is designed specifically for industrial scientists, laboratory assistants, and managers who are involved in PK/PD/DM-related areas. It consists of thirteen chapters, each of which deals with a particular PK/PD/DM issue and its industrial applications. Chapters 3 and 12 in particular address recent topics on higher throughput in vivo exposure screening and the prediction of pharmacokinetics in humans, respectively. Chapter 8 covers essential information on drug metabolism for industrial scientists.
Download or read book Enzyme Inhibition in Drug Discovery and Development written by Chuang Lu and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-01-26 with total page 878 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The science and applied approaches of enzyme inhibition in drug discovery and development Offering a unique approach that includes both the pharmacologic and pharmaco-kinetic aspects of enzyme inhibition, Enzyme Inhibition in Drug Discovery and Development examines the scientific concepts and experimental approaches related to enzyme inhibition as applied in drug discovery and drug development. With chapters written by over fifty leading experts in their fields, Enzyme Inhibition in Drug Discovery and Development fosters a cross-fertilization of pharmacology, drug metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and toxicology by understanding the "good" inhibitions—desirable pharmacological effects—and "bad" inhibitions—drug–drug interactions and toxicity. The book discusses: The drug discovery process, including drug discovery strategy, medicinal chemistry, analytical chemistry, drug metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and safety biomarker assessment The manipulations of drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters as well as the negative consequences, such as drug–drug interactions The inhibition of several major drug target pathways, such as the GPCR pathway, the NFkB pathway, and the ion channel pathway Through this focused, single-source reference on the fundamentals of drug discovery and development, researchers in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) will learn and appreciate target biology in drug discovery; discovery biologists and medicinal chemists will also broaden their understanding of DMPK.
Download or read book Reactive Drug Metabolites written by Amit S. Kalgutkar and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-09-06 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Closing a gap in the scientifi c literature, this first comprehensive introduction to the topic is based on current best practice in one of the largest pharmaceutical companies worldwide. The first chapters trace the development of our understanding of drug metabolite toxicity, covering basic concepts and techniques in the process, while the second part details chemical toxicophores that are prone to reactive metabolite formation. This section also reviews the various drug-metabolizing enzymes that can participate in catalyzing reactive metabolite formation, including a discussion of the structure-toxicity relationships for drugs. Two chapters are dedicated to the currently hot topics of herbal constituents and IADRs. The next part covers current strategies and approaches to evaluate the reactive metabolite potential of new drug candidates, both by predictive and by bioanalytical methods. There then follows an in-depth analysis of the toxicological potential of the top 200 prescription drugs, illustrating the power and the limits of the toxicophore concept, backed by numerous case studies. Finally, a risk-benefi t approach to managing the toxicity risk of reactive metabolite-prone drugs is presented. Since the authors carefully develop the knowledge needed, from fundamental considerations to current industry standards, no degree in pharmacology is required to read this book, making it perfect for medicinal chemists without in-depth pharmacology training.
